Adding Image watermark to Pdf while Creating it using iTextSharp

Question

Wonder if this possible. Saw many posts on adding watermark after the pdf is created and saved in disk. But during creation of document how do i add a image watermark. I know how to add a image to document. But how do i position it such that it comes at the end of page.

Answer 1

For C#, use this code...

//new Document

Document DOC = new Document();


// open Document

DOC.Open();


//create New FileStream with image "WM.JPG"

FileStream fs1 = new FileStream("WM.JPG", FileMode.Open);


iTextSharp.text.Image JPG = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(fs1), ImageFormat.Jpeg);


//Scale image

JPG.ScalePercent(35f);


//Set position

JPG.SetAbsolutePosition(130f,240f);

//Close Stream

fs1.Close();


DOC.Add(JPG);
